Will give brainliest. a student writes the equation for a line that has a slope of -6 and passes through the point (2, –8). y ) = -6(x - 2) y ) = -6x + 12 y ) + 8 = -6x + 12 + 8 y = -6x + 20 explain why the work is not correct.

They added 8 to each side,     --8 is +8    so we need to subtract - from each side not add 8 to each side

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a slope and a point

We can use point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y--8 = -6(x-2)    

y+8 = -6(x-2)

Distribute the -6

y+8 = -6x+12

Subtract 8 from each side

      ERROR in the students work

They added 8 to each side,     --8 is +8    so we need to subtract - from each side not add 8 to each side

y+8-8 = -6x+12-8

y = -6x+4

The student should have simplified the equation to have y + 8 on the left.

Then, the student should have subtracted 8 from both sides of the equation.

The value of b should be 4, not 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

i can answer this question sweetie!

step-by-step explanation:

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.  

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b.   this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes.   this makes them dependent events.
